26、When thinking about placing a human being in space, one of the most important questions was how to design special clothing needed to protect a person from the dangers of the space environment. The cold of space will freeze skin in a short time. The fierce heat of the sun can cause serious burns. The lack of atmosphere can cause gases in the body to expand(扩大) and even burst. With no oxygen to breathe, a human being will die in only a few moments. Radiation from the sun is another risk in space. So is damage from small pieces of rock and objects like meteoroids (陨石).
In 1933, an American flyer, Wiley Post, designed one of the first successful devices to protect a pilot at extreme heights. It was a large device that looked like a can surrounded the pilot's head. Astronauts in the American space agency (NASA) flew the first American space flights in the early 1960s. The clothing was similar to that invented by Wiley Post.
Today, astronauts wear very different protective clothing. It lets them move, do useful tasks, and stay outside their spacecraft in comfort and safety for several hours. The spacesuit is called the shuttle extravehicular mobility unit or EMU. It was designed to endure longer and to permit more movement than earlier spacesuits.
The EMU has a number of parts that an astronaut can link together by using only one hand, which makes it possible for each astronaut to select the parts that fit correctly.
Nowadays, NASA scientists are also considering the kind of spacesuits that would be needed for exploration on the planet Mars. Because of the gravity on Mars, spacesuits may have to be designed to be lighter than suits used in orbit or on the moon. The equipment may also have to protect astronauts from dust carried in the winds on Mars. And, they must be easy to repair and keep clean during a longer flight to and from the red planet.
【1】Which of the following is NOT mentioned about the dangers of space environment?
A. Lack of oxygen. B. Fierce heat from the sun.
C. Gases in the body. D. Radiation from the sun.
【2】Which of the following statements is true, according to this passage?
A. Wiley Post designed the first protective clothing for astronauts.
B. Astronauts in earlier spacesuits had difficulty in moving, doing useful tasks and so on.
C. EMU has many parts that can be linked together by using two hands.
D. Special spacesuits have been used for exploration of the planet Mars.
【3】The underlined word “endure” means _______.
A. provide B. move C. last D. live
【4】The best title of the passage might be ______.
A. Space exploration
B. Astronauts’ flights
C. The Advantages of Spacesuits
D. The Development of Spacesuits
27、Conor Grennan was unwilling to be a volunteer. The 29-year-old American was not sure if he had the skills or a strong feeling for it.
However, he went to work at an orphanage in Nepal. His first thought was to make people impressed.
"I thought that if I volunteered just once, I could retell the story over and over," Grennan said in a Huffington Post article.
However, his three-month stay in the orphanage turned into an unusual experience. It was in 2004 and Grennan had given up his job to begin a year-long around-the-world trip. His first three months were spent in Nepal.
When he arrived in the village, he knew nothing about the children or the local culture. When he opened the gate of the Little Princes Children's Home, he was faced by the excited children.
The young American ended up caring for 18 children. He later discovered that they were trafficked children. So he walked through the mountains with great difficulty to find the kids' families. "I started walking with photos of the kids," he told the Reuter's reporter. "I would show up in villages and show photographs around. I went with 24 photos, and I found 24 families."
At the same time, he put his heart into Nepalese culture.
Grennan said, "Volunteering is the single best way to see how the rest of the world lives."
He also encouraged others to do what he had done. He believes that volunteering needs only making decisions to show up.
Grennan's fight against child-trafficking has changed him. His book, Little Prince, came out last week.
【1】At first, Grennan simply wanted to ________ by volunteering in Nepal.
A．write travel stories
B．learn the skills
C．help the kids there
D．impress people
【2】When Grennan came to the Little Prince Children's Home, ________.
A．18 children were ill in bed
B．the children there felt excited
C．he decided to give up his job
D．he'd lived in Nepal for a year
【3】From the passage we can learn that Grennan________.
A．found the kids' families easily
B．was good at taking pictures
C．wrote the book Little Prince
D．asked others to go to Nepal
【4】Which is the best title for the passage?
A．Volunteering changes a lot.
B．Volunteering is with the kids.
C．A volunteer becomes a writer.
D．A volunteer travels in Nepal.
28、 Is homeschooling good or bad? That is a question that many parents ask themselves. In my opinion, homeschooled kids can give reliable answers.
Kayla Murray, who lives in Greensboro North Carolina, started homeschooling almost eight years ago, after attending two local schools. “Homeschooling is school at home,” like the name says, but it’s not just that/ she says. “You're able to learn more and do more.”
Having experienced learning at both school and home, Kayla says that she prefers the latter. “With homeschooling, I can do schoolwork in my pajamas, and no one cares,” she says, “you also have more chances. Earlier this year, my family and I were able to take a short vacation and go to an air show. My siblings and I get to take the day off for our birthdays. This year, I spent that time reading and playing the piano and guitar.”
There are, however, drawbacks of being homeschooled, Kayla says, especially “the lack of people”. While she doesn't miss homework, al school, she did enjoy getting to see my friends every day.”
Matthew Dimmette, also from Greensboro, used to be a homeschooler. He now attends public high school. He says being homeschooled is quite different from going to public school. The differences depend on how you arc homeschooled and the things you do. “For me, it wasn't really different in terms of the classes but the school environment was a big change atter hearting at home. says Matthew.
Talking about his homeschooling experience, Matthew says the best part of it was being able to learn what he wanted to. Yet the main disadvantage was that he couldn't do many experiments in homeschooling unless taking classes at different places. “My interest in science has been growing quickly in recent years, so I chose to go to public school,” he says.
【1】What does Kayla like about learning at home?
A．She can spend her time more freely.
B．She can always stay with her siblings.
C．She can play the instruments she likes.
D．She can celebrate her birthday at home.
【2】What does the underlined word “drawbacks” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A．Concerns.
B．Reasons.
C．Changes.
D．Problem.
【3】Why did Matthew choose to go to public school?
A．He wanted to make more friends.
B．He wanted to do experiments in labs.
C．He wanted to take all kinds of classes
D．He wanted to experience the school environment
【4】What in the authors attitude cowards homeschooling?
A．Supportive.
B．Doubtful.
C．Uninterested.
D．Unclear.
29、 When I started graduate school, I wanted to know how many hours a day I was expected to be in the lab. Not that I was planning to put in the least effort — instead, I was young and loved working, and I didn’t have much else to do anyway.
I don't remember who answered my question. But I do remember that they shrugged and said “It doesn't matter, as long as you get your work done.”
That seemed reasonable. After all, I knew from my previous research experience that sometimes I'd end up staying in the lab until midnight. I also knew that sometimes I wouldn’t get to the lab until noon because I was taking or teaching cases in the mornings. An “as long as you get your work done” policy seemed like a great way to say that graduate students are largely responsible workers who enjoy science.
I never stopped to think about the most important word in that phrase: “done”. As long as I get my work done? Super! But come to think of it. I've never met a scientist who has, even for a day, considered their work “done”. There are always more experiments to do, discoveries to make and questions to answer.
There are always interesting new problems to research into and scientific truths to elucidate. But if there’s no such thing as “done” in science, and you're supposed to work until you get your work done, your working hours are not certain.
Though it may seem like a wise opinion—responsibility in place of flexibility — the truth is that you can never really pull away from work. You can always do a little more, and a little more, but that extra effort doesn’t ease tomorrow’s workload.
【1】What can we know about the author from paragraph 1?
A.He could spend much time in the lab. B.He had made plans for his other wok.
C.He wanted to reduce lab hours to the least. D.He didn’t meet the teacher's requirements
【2】What did the author think of “as long as you get your work done” at first?
A.It was difficult to carry out B.It was fit for graduate students.
C.It was a duty for graduate students. D.It forced graduate students to work long hours.
【3】Which word best describes a scientist's work according to the author?
A.Boring. B.Exciting. C.Endless. D.Difficult.
【4】What does the underlined word “elucidate” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Explain. B.Change. C.Create. D.Treasure.
